Bulldogs Hitless Against Kan
The no-hitter is one of baseball's truly egalitarian achievements. It's done by the great and the not-so-great alike, and for nearly all of them it represents the pinnacle of a career. <Gainesville Gators:team#71> pitcher <Jiu-ling Kan:player#8050> had his moment today at The Swamp, holding the <Punta Gorda Bulldogs:team#70> hitless and beating them, 10-0.

"Everything was working for him," Bulldogs manager   said. "He had a lot of late movement that seemed to cause the guys trouble, especially from the fifth inning on.  He was in command."

Kan rung up 10 strikeouts, issued 2 walks and faced only 28 hitters in his historic outing. After the game, he spoke to BNN reporters in the Gainesville locker room.

"I really got nervous in the last inning," Kan recalled. "I knew I had a chance at a no-hitter but it was hard to stay calm and concentrate. Thank goodness for my catcher. He told me he would do all the thinking and I could just concentrate on hitting his glove."
